Germany!

Germany was great!!! I had a fun time- especially with my little nephew Paul and my sis. Her belly is the most gorgeous I've ever seen! "Hannes" is due on my Birthday (May 23rd)!!!! I talked to her yesterday (on her birthday!!!) and she said he's probably not coming so soon. Maybe next week. We'll see!!! I can't wait to hear from them! Nelle is definitely ready for him to arrive she says.
I also saw my friend Mignon (from Niederbayern) and we had a great time. The first night she took me to see a bavarian brass band- and it was fantastic!!! The next day she took me to Burghausen- we stopped several times on the way to enjoy the views. On Mothersday I went home again to see my family and we had a nice German dinner with white asparagus, potatoe salad(-s) and baked ham. I really loved being with my family!

Here're some pics from Burghausen:




That was in front of a bakery. (Dog-)People tie their dogs to that little metal puppy before they enter the store!


The Pope's house in Marktl and some "Pope beer" ad:
